Implementing an NES emulator is a great way to learn more about a language and the internals of the NES (which is well documented). It's sorta like a rite of passage and has been done in most of the "newer" languages like Nim (https://github.com/def-/nimes) , Go (https://github.com/fogleman/nes)

It's actually "rite of passage" as in latin "ritus".

oops fixed.. thx

Almost: rite _of_ passage (not "to")

argh.. fixed again thx

You have now completed this write of passage.

To become a passage wright.

Well-documented, but many sources are contradictory. For such well researched hardware, there is a lot to be confused about when researching this topic by yourself.

At least there's no shortage of implementations to reference.
